A carbon footprint, that is. Londoner Jon Alexander will ditch his regular trainers, swap his carbon- fibre bike for a bamboo one and wear recycled-fibre clothing to become the first eco-competitor in an Ironman- length triathlon in Barcelona. Only attempted by a few thousand people a year, races in the gruelling series take about 12 hours to finish and are regarded as some of the most chal- lenging endurance events. They include a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2-mile run. Mr Alexander, 27, an environmental strategist at a Soho advertising agency, has run four marathons and rowed for Great Britain at under-23 level. He is training by swimming in the Serpen- tine, trudging parks and towpaths and covering miles of the city’s roads by bike. But his training and preparation are focused not just on the physical chal- lenge but on the environmental one. He will travel to Challenge Barcelona, which is on 4 October, by Eurostar and overnight train, and will auction off his bike and other reusable pieces of his environmentally-friendly kit after the race to raise money for charity. He will eat a vegetarian diet, getting protein from beans, pulses and cheeses and dreaming up recipes “using eggs in ways that the average person never thought possible”. He will also munch on fair-trade, organic sports nutrition products. Mr Alexander, who lives in Wands- worth, wants to draw attention to open spaces available for sport, and aims to raise funds and awareness for the Wilderness Foundation, a charity which encourages city-dwellers to become connected to nature and wild places.

Only attempted by a few thousand people a year, races in the gruelling series take about 12 hours to finish and are regarded as some of the most chal-lenging endurance events. They include a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2-mile run.
